Welcome aboard the addiction train! If you haven't already started to suffer don't worry you will do :-D Until starting C25K have never considered myself a runner but now am itching to get out and run. The forum is fab as you have probably gathered, loads of lovely, helpful people dishing out advice and encouragement. Look forward to hearing about your progress :-)

Good for you ! Hope you keep enjoying the programme.
